Default 3 amigos with following codes....

Hi, have finally got somewhere that can read the ABS codes and got 5 codes. They are the following:
212 shuttle valve switch electrical failure
181 rear right outlet valve short to internal supply
179 front left outlet valve short to internal supply
158 front left sensor output too low
149 rear right outlet valve open circuit

I had the codes cleared and drove home, the amigos came back. However, driven it more and it hasn't returned yet, but I'm not holding much hope as there are numerous issues with this car.....generally they don't come on straight away, and can take 30 minutes or more of driving.

If I remove the shuttle valve and check them and replace if faulty (using option b solution) would the other codes likely be related to the shuttle valve issue?

Have checked and it will fail its inspection if it comes up during the check. I have 4 weeks before I have to take it in.

Help. Please....

Just wanted to toss out there that the job is not bad at all. It can be a little "slow" unscrewing the 3 allen bolts off because they are upside down and you use a mirror, but a good 2-hours of your time and they could very well be gone. I wish I would have done mine long ago, had I known how easy it was. So nice driving with no lights and brakes that work well. :-)

Mainly you just need the allen key in the socket tool (I think 4mm allen about 1/2-3/4" long)

This wire: Hopkins Manufacturing 47965 - Trailer Wire Connector | O'Reilly Auto Parts

some heat shrink wrap and a cigarette lighter (or heat gun)

Folks like these but you can also cut and splice if you like.
Amazon.com: Posi-tap Connector, 16-18 Gauge Wire: Automotive Amazon.com: Posi-tap Connector, 16-18 Gauge Wire: Automotive

Green/yellow wire goes to the red or white harness wire and the remaining harness wire grounds to chassis.
